I suppose I'll post more of her work then! People seem to really like her.

I thought I'd share with you another le guin story I had previously shared only to see you were in that comment section too!

(Although that's her most famous story ever)

Yes. Gem after gem

There are so many who do not realize that they are bound by chains. There are many more still who, were they to realize it, would only be grateful for their chains. There are also many who, while not grateful, have resigned themselves to working industriously to forge their chains. And there are the many who, seeing the chain-making as ridiculous, frequently find openings in the watch of the guards to rest their bodies while harbouring selfish delusions in their heads and passionately spouting nonsense about actually being free and not bound by chains at all. It is more foolish than I can bear to watch.

I cursed myself; I grew saddened, and then angry. I remembered the words of Hegel: “The real is the rational, and the rational is the real.”

This made me laugh out loud.

The story is a coherent idea. But I would've guessed AI if it wasn't as old as it is.

I certainly feel there's more negative opinions about Lemmy too. Which everyone is free to have. But a rise is ... interesting

Dont need anymore gamification of social media. Best just to ignore it imo

I've wanted to start this community for a while. I feel a lack of original writing on Lemmy. Poetry tends to be short form and more accessible to many.

I intend to post my own writings, including some of my most personal stuff; writings not a single soul has seen. I would love to have you all join in, as lurkers, as posters, as poets, as enthusiasts. I look forward to seeing this community grow!

 

Hello, fellow poets and poetry lovers!

I’m excited to open this new chapter here at OC Poetry! I’ve recently started to appreciate the ability of poetry to be a powerful way to express, reflect, and connect, and I’m looking forward to be a part of a community that values original voices and fresh perspectives.

In the days and weeks ahead, I’ll be sharing some of my own work with you all. From new poems to reflections on my writing process and personal interpretations, I hope my posts will spark some meaningful conversations and maybe even inspire others to share their thoughts, too.

I'm also here to learn from you! If you’re posting your own work, analysis, or poetry insights, I’ll be looking forward to reading, discussing, and celebrating what you have to offer. I would love your critique too.

Here’s to an inspiring journey of words and ideas! Let’s build a supportive space together—one that’s rich with creativity and thoughtful exchange. Happy writing and reading, everyone!

With love; Lacanoodle.

 

OK this was the last one. Had to post a few for Halloween, sorry for the dump. No other day defines an entire genre so I couldn't let this opportunity go.

 

I've posted some more iconic of his works already. This deserves to be here too.

 

Perhaps the most iconic of his works

 

There's 3 ghost stories there, but the signal man in specific is what I wanted to highlight.
